A nice image of a very nice place.

Keep up the medium format for us. If Kodak ever sends me the "free" film, I will shoot some 2 1/4's for fun.

Thank you, Tom. I will do that.

I think Kodak has forgotten me. No worries. I have a bunch of Fuji film in the freezer.

EDIT: Kodak rocks! The Pony Express delivered the fresh new film this afternoon!

I like it, first word that comes to mind is "serenity". The duck/bird is a nice touch as it keeps the foreground water from being too empty.

Thanks, Jeff. The bird was one of those "accidents" that happen if you wait long enough. I made several exposures of that scene. When I got to the dock there was more fog over the water but no sun on the opposite shore. Those photos we won't talk about. When the sun lit the opposite bank things looked better. Then the bird swam out from my side of the lake. I waited and waited and...got lucky.
